Music reviews of Rhymes & Reasons
Music Review: Great memories
Rating: 4 Stars
I first saw John Denver in 1973, on TV in the United Kingdom. He came over to London and made a series of 6 shows for the BBC in the Shepherd's Bush Theatre (a name which he recited with great relish at the start of every show). He had the Pan's People dancers on every show and a different featured guest, including such British stars as Roger Daltrey, Lulu and David Essex. After that series, JD made it really big in the USA and never did make another series for the BBC.
This album was recorded slightly before that, and I went out and bought it having enjoyed the series. It's still one of my favorites; it contains a couple of tracks which weren't written by Denver ('Love Of The Common People' and 'Catch Another Butterfly') and are therefore usually omitted from the 'Best Of' collections, but are well worth hearing. Otherwise, the music is happy and tuneful and young. Perhaps these days the political satire of 'The Ballad Of Spiro Agnew' and 'The Ballad Of Richard Nixon' (which are not defective tracks, that's what was on the original album) is pretty pointless and could have been omitted without diminishing the quality of the CD or indeed the length of it, but that's a minor matter.
Whether you're starting a John Denver collection or completing one, this CD should definitely be part of it.
